Cancer care - ovarian cancer quality performance indicators review: consultation

This document acts as a guide to our consultation on Ovarian Cancer Quality Improvement Indicators. The consultation can be accessed via our Citizen Space platform.


8. Areas for Future Consideration

The Ovarian Cancer QPI Groups have not been able to identify sufficient evidence, or determine appropriate measurability specifications, to address all areas felt to be of key importance in the treatment of ovarian cancer, and therefore in improving the quality of care for patients affected by ovarian cancer.

The following areas for future consideration have been raised across the lifetime of the Ovarian Cancer QPIs.

  • Surgery for recurrent ovarian cancer.
  • Timeliness of adjuvant chemotherapy.
  • Recording of Chemotherapy Response Score (CRS)
  • Access to whole genome sequencing in epithelial ovarian cancer
